Abstract:
As an analog to the Riemann hypothesis, we prove that the real parts of all complex zeros of the Krawtchouk polynomials, as well as of the discrete Chebyshev polynomials, of order $N=-1$ are equal to $-\frac{1}{2}$. For these polynomials, we also derive a functional equation analogous to that for the Riemann zeta function.
Key words and phrases:zeta function property, orthogonal polynomials, discrete Chebyshev polynomials, Krawtchouk polynomials, functional equation.
